From NOMAD — FOUNDERS & INVESTORS ASIA PACIFIC

Purpose Without Profit Isn't Sustainable. Profit Without Purpose Isn't Meaningful. For years we've been told there's a choice. You can build a profitable business, or you can build a purpose-driven one. This isn't true. The businesses creating the greatest impact today understand something different. Purpose gives you direction. Profit gives you sustainability. One without the other rarely lasts. It shouldn't be so hard to do good, but that's exactly what it feels like running a Not-for-Profit (NFP). In a world full of options and information, it’s easy to feel like there are too many fish in the sea - each swimming past in a blur. **NFP Ocean** is here to make impact easier! We’re bringing together Local NFP Community leaders like you, to enjoy networking with your peers to build new relationships, open opportunities for collaboration, and to celebrate the launch of **NFP Ocean** and our Community Connection program of events. There will be a great guest speaker panel talking about the 8 Key Things your NFP needs to Thrive. Be part of shaping the future for NFPs, participate in our live polls and interactive panel. It's a chance to: * Strengthen your local connections * Gain practical insights you can apply immediately * Meet other leaders navigating similar challenges * Be part of shaping a more connected and supported NFP community Do you believe businesses should actively pursue purpose alongside profit, or should they remain separate? Whether you're a business leader, consultant, technology provider, accountant, lawyer, marketer, or an NFP leader, this conversation is relevant to you. We look forward to meeting you there and build something meaningful together. RSVP now to secure your spot (seats are limited).

SEE ME - Transform from ‘camera shy’ to owning the frame

Wed, Jul 22, 7:30 AM

Creatives who build lasting careers aren't just good at their craft. They let people in. The opportunity for connection often starts with a photo. Your face on your digital platforms or in publicity for your projects. Being photographed is a chance to share something real and authentic about ourselves — our passion, our personality, our intent. But most of us struggle to share those things with the lens. And while you're hiding behind your work, your competitors are building personal relationships with your potential clients, collaborators and audiences. This deeply immersive workshop is designed to unlock your connection to any camera. To guide you through a transformative experience – from camera shy to owning the frame. Raf is a sound designer, eighteen months into a freelance career that should be going better than it is. The people who've worked with him love working with him. He's sharp, easy to collaborate with, passionate about what sound can do. But none of that comes through online, where the next client is making decisions. He tells himself the work should speak for itself. And it does — to the people who've already heard it. Everyone else scrolls past. His website has no photo. His LinkedIn is a grey silhouette. His Instagram is waveforms and session screenshots — technically impressive, completely impersonal. Then someone asks him a question that reframes everything: What do you want people to feel when they find you? Not how he looks. What he wants to communicate. Raf realises the camera isn't a mirror — it's a window into his world. A way to let someone across the city, or across the country, feel something about him before they've heard a single track. He stops thinking about being photographed and starts thinking about being found. He walks out with headshots that capture the person his collaborators already know — and that everyone else is about to meet. **THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR:** * Anyone who feels awkward when a camera is pointed at them * Anyone trying to build audiences, collaborations and client lists - who understand that people hire people, not portfolios * Anyone who need photos that feel like them, not like a stock image * Anyone who's ever been told "you should put yourself out there more" **YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH:** * A professional headshot * A shift in how you experience being photographed * A clear sense of what you want people to feel when they find you online * The confidence that comes from being truly seen by a room full of people who get it * New connections and relationships #### **ABOUT THE FACILITATORS** ***Jonathan Lee*** is an Experience Artist and Founder of Utopia Rising — a movement of immersive social experiences that strip away labels, reduce barriers, and invite people to be their most expressive selves. ***Si Dikkenberg*** is Launch Pad Creative's Creator-in-Residence and has spent 30 years helping real people shine on camera. 🎟️ Register to attend: 👉🏽 [https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/see-me-transform-from-camera-shy-to-owning-the-frame-tickets-1991665172144](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/see-me-transform-from-camera-shy-to-owning-the-frame-tickets-1991665172144) *This event is brought to you by Launch Pad Creative.

In an era where AI is rapidly commoditising content, your ability to integrate emerging tech while building a defensible human moat is what will make you irreplaceable. **Parallel Tracks for Mastering the Shift** Modern digital leadership requires a sync between two powerful forces. This evening is built around two distinct paths: * **Session 1 \| The Future of Discovery: AI Agents\, LLMs\, and the New Search Landscape\.** Beyond keywords and rankings. We explore the technical logic required to navigate the move from traditional search engines to AI-driven discovery engines. * **Session 2 \| The Human Moat: Why Community & Human Authority are the New Competitive Advantage\.** In an automated world, trust is the only asset that doesn’t scale. We dive into the strategy and heart required to build communities that serve as a brand’s ultimate defensible moat. **✨ Early Bird Tickets are Now Live! ✨** To reward our early movers, we are opening a **strictly limited release of 30 Early Bird tickets** starting today. Just like our IWD celebration, we expect these spots to go fast. **Secure your place at the best possible price before the general release.** **💌 Keeping the door open for the next generation.** At WiSDM, we believe our industry is at its best when the rooms are filled with a mix of established wisdom and fresh perspectives.
